Peggy Seeger Teaches Guitar Accompaniment for Folk Songs, Ballads and Originals
Peggy Seeger’s unique and compelling guitar accompaniments have become a trademark sound during her successful and highly influential career. This fascinating two-hour lesson draws on Peggy’s vast repertoire of traditional and original songs and her impeccable ear for just the right nuance to create and embellish an arrangement.
Peggy addresses a variety of accompaniment styles: Carter Family strumming, Spanish or “classical” style, drone-bass and “automatic thumb” fingerpicking, alternate tunings, the “lullaby strum” and other techniques that will dress up your songs. You’ll also get the benefits of Peggy’s long professional experience with playing tips, historical insights and wonderful stories about her life in music.
You’ll learn to play traditional British songs and ballads (Newlyn Town, Johnson Jinkson, Hangman, The Mermaid, Swallow and Trout); Appalachian songs (Whistle Daughter Whistle, Butcher’s Boy, When I Was Single, Wagoner’s Lad); and contemporary songs written by Peggy and her late husband, Ewan MacColl (Gonna Be An Engineer, First Time Ever I Saw Your Face, Bring Me Home, The Ballad of Springhill).
